Team lead Guide: Create and manage your team

The module Teams allows you to create a team with different members – you can even use sophisticated bulk operations to revolutionize your team management. The module simplifies the ability to get an overview of the logged time for a whole team, track their progress, capacity, holidays, and days-off.

Once a team is created and team members are added to the team, it is automatically available to team mates in the teams’ picker when creating a work log in My Timesheets.

In each team, you can define roles and permissions for team members, track their spent time and check capacity according to assigned workload calendar.
